Worcester City Manager Eric Batista said in a statement that the city “will never” target individuals passed on their immigration status and that city officials including police do not assist with ICE civil detainments “but may not interfere with it.”

“However, it is the municipality and department’s responsibility to uphold the law and protect the peace of our community,” Batista said. “The series of events was no doubt disturbing and the footage of a family being separated is harrowing … My heart goes out to all those impacted by today’s events and the growing tension we all feel due to the national political climate.”

      Nuremberg for the largest part was a sham. Countless criminals who were integral to the Nazi regime were apologized as merely being “followers” and subsequently were given high positions is western Germany in the police, intelligence, justice, politics, economy and media. The US wanted the Fascists to maintain a hold to prevent any form of socialist or communist movement gaining hold. Iirc. initially the allies didn’t intend to prosecute anyone and it required some initiatives to even get them to prosecute someone.
